Rangataua railway cottage
Rangataua railway cottage.
This is the original Rangataua stationmasters cottage. Well positioned with a lovely outlook of the stunning Rangataua forest with the snowy Ruapehu peaks of Tahurangi and Girdlestone peaking over. Just 5 minutes drive to the mountain road and Ohakune junction.
If you don’t mind the odd passing train, this is a perfect base for snow adventure , bush walks and mountain biking.
